    Random Fusion Alarm - status OFF

    Hey all - had my apex up and running for a couple of months now. over the past week or two, i have been receiving an occassional random alarm (of course mostly in middle of night). there are no issues and there is no first message stating an alarm is ON. i understand there should be an OFF message sent after an alarm is resolved. but, this is random.

    any idea what could be causing this. the newest addition to the system was i installed a float valve to my ATO. here is the EmailAlm config:

    Set OFF
    If Tmp > 79.0 Then ON
    If Tmp < 75.0 Then ON
    If Leak CLOSED Then ON
    If pH < 7.50 Then ON
    If pH > 8.75 Then ON
    If Topoff OPEN then ON

    Thanks!

    It's possible that the Topoff switch is bouncing OPEN/CLOSED (or the pH or temp is hovering right at the alarm threshold), and the alarm is turning on then off so fast that only the Status OFF / Set OFF message gets through. Add these lines to the end of the email program:

    Defer 0:05 Then ON
    Min Time 0:05 Then ON

    This adds a 5 second delay before the alarm will turn on, and then causes it to stay on for at least 5 seconds when it does get turned on.
    Please do not send me PMs with technical questions or requesting assistance - use the forums for Apex help. PM me ONLY if the matter is of a private or personal nature. Thanks.
